I Love Midlife Crisis

Why do I love midlife crisis events? Because they consolidate and crystallize what my families are all about and stimulate my mind into realizing the sometimes unrealized goals I've been doing with them. I've only had two types so far (adventure and success) but find some overlap with the two I've yet to get (creative and relationship). Unlike the chump change likes/dislikes and lifestyle stuff that often don't reflect where my plans are going midlife crisis achieves my goals spectacularly.

  • I don't have GrT yet, but that sounds great.

    I know I'm in a tiny minority on this, but I think that if they had to add a new life stage to the game, it should be midlife. Right now, I find the transition between adult and elder to be like falling off a cliff. One minute your sim is a healthy adult and the next they're a hunched over, saggy elder. I know most people are calling for a pre-teen life stage, but IMO last thing we need is for childhood overall to be dragged out even longer. It's such a slog already. Let's agree that they made a huge mistake from the start by making teens look basically the same as young adults, but nothing will be done about it now. Let's move on with making the older life stages more interesting instead!

    It's a shame there are no cars or motorcycles. It would be hilarious to be able to have a sim purchase a "crisis car".
  • I love them too, one of the best things added lately! I have had a relationship crisis twice I think.
